asleep

The Everly Brothers

Asleep
please oh please let me fall asleep
it's like heaven when I sleep
until morning I forget her

I lie awake in my lonely bed
in a room without a light
Trying hard to find a dream
that gets me through the night

But
sleep won't come
it's never there
since you're no longer mine
and sleep is such a precious thing
with your memory on my mind

Asleep
oh please let me fall asleep
it's so peaceful when I sleep
until morning nothing matters

Asleep
if I could only fall asleep
it's like heaven when I sleep
until morning I forget her

I hate to see the sun go down
and face another night
I watch the shadows climb the wall
as they try to catch the light

Asleep
oh please let me fall asleep...


Asleep
if I could only fall asleep
it's like heaven when I sleep
untill morning I forget her

Asleep
oh please let me fall asleep...
